Operation
Absolute Encoder Setup
You must set up the absolute encoder if using a motor with an absolute encoder. The setup is
required when you turn ON the power supply for the first time, when an absolute encoder
system down error (Alarm No.40) occurs, or when the encoder cable is disconnected and then
connected again.
To use an absolute encoder, set the Operation Switch when Using Absolute Encoder (Pn015)
to 0 or 2.
The absolute encoder is set up via communications. Refer to the operation manual of the host
controller of CX-Drive (Cat. No. W453).
After the setup, turn off the control power and turn it on again.
